MAX GOSLIN.
Another Pupil for which Prof. Haw-
kins Undergoes Examination.

Prof. Hawkins. teacher in the public
school, was before the school board
yesterday afternoon on the charge Of
beating Max Goslin in cruel unmer-
ciful, harsh and brutal manner, inflict-
ing severe stripes and injuries on the
person of said Goslin.
The evidence at the examination
yesterday shows that while the class
was recitng Max spoke in low tone
and the teacher told him TO speak
louder. lie spoke louder for few
words 0nd then dropped back into his
former tone and when told to speak
louder sulked and refused. The Pro
fessor boxed his ears, and the boy told
him his praents didn't allow any one
to hit him on the ears on account OF
his defective hearing. The evidence is
the teacher did not hit him again on
the head, but procured switch. The
boy got hold of the switch and broke
it. Another was procured and he was
struck with it four or five hard blows,
when the boy grabbed the switch and
the Profcssorj jerked it with much force
out of his hands, which carried the
skin with it; then the punishment
closed. The testimony of scholars
goes to show that Prof Hawkins is no
more severe in punishment than with
other scholars, and that the boy pro-
voked the teacher in the first place and
resisted the punishment in the second
place, which produced the violent in
Jury that followed.

WATER SUPPLY.
The City Council Getting on the Right
Track-Dailas will have Good
Water

The city council came to a, paria
understanding last night about water
supply. There were various opinions,
and each alderman seemed to have n
distinct pan of his own. Alderman
Rowly introduced resolution TO dam
the Trinity river and bui.d reservoir
for temporary rcliet. Alderman Loeb
opposed this was in favor of the
the Oh cago engineers plan and held
the water of the Trinity up in dcris-
ion, as impure poisonous and not even
! fit to wash with.
Alderman LouckX stated that it
made no difference from what source
YOU got Water outside of the Trinity
RIVER, they would be forced to fall
back on that source Of supply ;
it was folly for people to talk about
catching rain water to supply II great
city. lie denied that Trinity water
was impure; showed that there were
six or eight important streams run
ming into the Trinity between Fort
Worth and Dallas. lie favored the
dam and reservoir.
Alderman Rauch denied that the
Trinity water was impure. lie had
scientists 10 examine it; the water mad
been anaIyzed and found pure.
Alderman Cockrell favored the
dam and reservoir but wanted the
water to come from Elm creek and to
sink an artesia II well at the same time.
The aldermen generally favored his
proposition.
Aldermen Hall, Mitchell and Peter
man opposed this plan, and the latter
two wanted to proceed with the plan
of the Chicago engineers if it did cost
$150000.
Mr.. Brown, of New York was pres
ent, who was water works man, and
the council heard him. He said that
he would guarantee the city 100000
gallons of water per day, pure whole
some, clear water, for $4,000 year.
Mr.. Browns proposition seemed to
take the councils breath away. Taerc
was recess for talking over the mat
ter, but as no written proposition was
before the council, that body passed
Mr.. Rowley's resolution which would
not interfere with any plan that
might be made by Mr.. Brown. That
gentleman was requested to make a
proposition at the next Saturday
nights meeting.

Mr.. VIII 4. Hawkins, of the Com
merce Commercial, is in the city, en-
route to the Fort. While asleep on

first time that his funds had made glad
the heart of another.

rHE GAINESVILLE CROOKS.
The Men Convicted and the Woman
Acquitted.

The readers of the HERALD are
familiar with these parties. Three
months Ego at Gainesville, where they
had lived several weeks together, they
broke into and robbed the postoflce
of about $400 were tracked, arrested
and jailed. The examination lasted
several days in Commissioner Bur-
ford's court. The men were bound
over to the present term of the United
States court, where they were tried
yesterday and convicted.
The woman was tried separately. 1t
was shown that eight years ago she
married young man while under the
influence ofliquor, and in few days
after marriage suit waa brought by
the father ofthe boy for divorce which
was obtained. The prosecution fol-
lowed her along the path of her lite.
showing that the marriage with Will
son, alias Taylor, was blind TO ena-
bic her to assist these men in their
burglaries, and throw shield around
herself.
Col Crawford ably defended Mrs.
Wilson against the attack Of the prose-
cutting attorney, bringing tears to her
eyes and something they say much
like water to the eyes of some of the
jurymen, The jury was out half ali
hour perhaps and returned verdict
of not guilty.

Hint to the Ladies.

II is now very fashionable in many
eastern cities for the ladies to have
their photographs taken with hats on.
j. IL. Webster, the ii. p. Photographer,
advises the ladies of Dallas to adopt
the hat style in photography, as most
every lady will make a prettier pic
ture with hat, moreover it will save
you much trouble in the arrangement
of the hair and prevent the spelling of
many good pictures. Call at Web

Careless Driving.

The HERALD has recently directed
attention to the dangerous daily run
aways with which the people of the
city have 10 contend. One day
last week we had three-perhaps four
yet nobody has been punished for
leaving his team unhitched or for care
less driving. In addition to this
trouble, many of the public wagons of
the city hold on to the right of way
the middle of the street-as if it be-
longcd to them, and as if they were
moved with malice aforethought to
break off all the wheels OF lighter ve-
hicles and smash up all the women and
children of the town. A paper weight
is not safe hitching post; runaway
horse at midday down Main or Elm is
not going to boom the town; broken
lirabs or necks are not trivial matters,
even in a city of $4,000. Careless
driving or failure to hitch is a serious
ofTense and should be broken up if
possible.

SHINDLED by A FORGER.
a Stranger Passes a Fraudulent Check for
$50 on Brinsmaid 81 HiIdreth

\ stranger went into Brinsmaid e. Hill
dreth's jewelry store yesterday, and after
looking at some articles and asking Mr..
Ilildreth to save certain watch for him
went out saying he would return in few
minutes. He returned shortly and said
he wanted the watch, as he wished to
make present to young lady. He told
4 very plausible story, saying he wished
to show it to Mr.. +. NJ. Smith, friend of
his, to see what he thought about
the watch, which was a gold one val
ued at about $50, with flowers en-
graved on both sides of the case. He
handed Mr.. Hildreth as security Il
check on the Merchants bank for 500, pur
porting to be drawn by f.. VI. Smith in
favor OF William Brown. Mr.. Hildreth
knowing Mr.. Smith, accepted the paper
aud allowed the stranger To take the
watch. He became somewhat uneasy,
however, and in about 10 minutes went to
the bank, where nc found that Mr. Smith
bad no account there, and that the check
WAS worthless. Officers We're at once
notified, nut at last accounts no trace OF
the swludIer had been obtained.
The stranger WAS short, somewhat
thick-set, inclined to be dark. wore n
light, brown moustache and WAS
about 30 years old. He was fairly well
dressed, in dark clothing and wore Il
black stiff hat.
